It's a very cute ambient, selection is wide and good. Not 5 stars because if I order a hot cappuccino and a cake, I would expect to get a glass of water too, since the prices are slightly higher than average. No big deal, but even in cheaper places they bring you water

Such a nice chill place to hang out. Good coffee and even old guidebooks to browse. It's fun to read what the old guidebooks say about Pattaya 20 years ago. Ha ha.

This is a great little hidden gem - very nice interesting interior with books/ coffee theme; seats outside as well if wanted. Friendly and helpful staff; wide choice on menu - western, Thai, Italian, Indian. I had the Thai Chicken with Cachews / Rice (a-roi maak) followed by rum and raisin ice-cream (total 210 Baht). I give it 5 stars as an excellent little cafe - I’ll be back.

Very cozy and nice place. A decent menu with a nice variation of tasty food, Thai and international. Nicely decorated, rustic feeling, a big bookshelf with various selection of literature. Suitable for kids as well. Indoor and outdoor section. Not a very nice view, but a nice chill hangout for a few hours. I am a returning customer, both for breakfast, lunch and dinner, I really like it and can warmly recommend it.
